Question:

On September 25, 2023, Homeowner met with Contractor to discuss an addition that Homeowner wanted to add to his house. Homeowner wanted Contractor to build a large primary bedroom with a large, modern bathroom. After the meeting, Contractor told Homeowner that she would get back to him in a week with pricing. After doing her due diligence and crunching numbers, Contractor determined that it would cost $72,000 to complete the job.

On October 1, 2023, Homeowner and Contractor entered a signed, written contract. Per the contract terms, Homeowner would pay Contractor $100,000, and Contractor would build the addition according to the specifications provided by Homeowner, provide all the materials and labor for the job, and complete the project within six months.

On October 24, 2023, Homeowner breached the contract by refusing to allow Contractor access to the property, falsely claiming that Contractor had not obtained the necessary permits for the work and that the work was not being done according to code. As of this date, Contractor had spent an irretrievable $11,000 on materials and labor. Later that day, Contractor called Homeowner, disputing his claims, arguing that Homeowner was simply trying to avoid paying for the work; telling Homeowner that she would be there on October 27, 2023, to continue working on the project; and warning Homeowner that if he didn't allow her access to the house, she would sue him.

On October 25, 2023, Contractor purchased $10,000 worth of materials that could only be used for Homeowner's addition. When Contractor arrived at Homeowner's house on October 27, 2023, Homeowner once again refused to allow Contractor access to his property.
